Boeddel visited on 1st Apr 2017 - their rating: Access: 4 Unfortunately there is not much to see.
90 circular røser and 8 rare ship shaped røser have been found there. This is the biggest røser grave feld on the island.
Because of the strong vegetation the røser are not easily recognizable.
Click HERE for an overview with the arrangement of the røser.
